Toilets with web access are nothing new.

I am more than 70 years old, and when I was a kid growing up our outdoor privy always had spider webs in it. More than once, someone would suffer a spider bite in places most painful.

Bits, bytes, webs -- so what else is new?
I'm not a complete idiot -- a few parts are missing!

Ya gotta applaud those bunnies for sacrificing their hearing just so some guy in Cupertino can have better TV reception.

Hope this isn't where the 'paperless society' gains a foot hold, or where the new 'electronic paper' is used...

I too am a bit over 70 and remeber when many public restrooms had pay toilets. God help you if you didn't have the right change or the only avail;able toiulet had a jammed coin slot.    

Well, I wouldn't put anything past Gates and crew.

There was a news item a little while back that the Japanese had a lavatory that could analyse, er, "samples" when you went to the toilet. Combine these two and you could get a full medical online while at a rock festival.... (mind you it might also analyse what you'd been drinking and smoking and send a report straight to the cops....)
